UPDATE MAY 2 2025

We are excited to let you know that the Bark Manufacturing Company listing price is now $6.25 million.

This is a cash-based “Cash Cow”  business with contracts, employees, and equipment all in place.

Somewhat absentee management is a possibility.

In addition the business can be scaled up with effective marketing management, wholesale bulk product lines, and increased loads of materials to existing customers.

I believe it is a real buying opportunity for the right operator.
